IV Therapy in Fond du Lac, WI
Safe and effective tool to deliver essential nutrients to heal your body.
Whether you’re run down and need a boost, suffering from chronic fatigue or Lyme disease, or undergoing cancer treatment, IV Therapy is a powerful, proven tool in improving health.
Increasing numbers of physicians are utilizing Intravenous (IV) Therapy as a part of their approach to helping patients restore or maintain their health. The rationale for using IV therapy is related to the limitation of the gastrointestinal system in the absorption of therapeutic levels of various micronutrients. It is also very helpful when building up the level so that the patient may begin maintenance with oral supplements.
For example, if a patient is given a large dose of oral magnesium, the end result is diarrhea because of magnesium’s effect on the bowels. However, intravenous administration of magnesium does not have that effect. So, if given in IV form, the level given can be much higher to affect a positive change. There is also a noted advantage in establishing somewhat higher plasma levels of various micronutrients in an acute fashion, as this procedure can saturate cellular metabolic processes to an enhanced, overall cellular functional efficiency.
By bypassing the gut and going straight into the bloodstream, IV Therapy delivers a potent dose of energizing, immune-boosting nutrients, helping your body repair at a cellular level.
The utility of intravenous treatments is varied. Over the years, numerous protocols have been developed by nutritionally oriented physicians. They are specifically aimed at working with a variety of processes. They include fibromyalgia, chronic fatigue, immune enhancements, acute and chronic infectious processes, augmentation of cancer therapies and the acceleration of wound healing, to name a few.
The length of an IV treatment will vary depending on the nature and type of treatment received. It can last from 20 minutes to 4 hours.
